New official model of Thirteenth Doctor

Are there any costume surprises in this officially licensed model of Jodie Whittaker’s Thirteenth Doctor in the new series of Doctor Who?

No, it’s a by the book replication of the first official photoshoot.

The model is from Character Options who have the rights to make the figures and available for pre-order on their site from today.

The model is 26cm tall and comes with a Sonic Screwdriver accessory. Notably, the Sonic Screwdriver is not shown and this adds to the strong rumours (and leaked designs) that the Doctor’s favourite tool is getting a serious overhaul.

She’s still wearing her rainbow t-shirt and it seems that the rainbow touch extends inside her long grey coat. Those trousers are described as ‘high-waisted culottes’.

This is the first look at a 10″ figure which is a bit larger than the traditional Doctor Who range from Character Options. However, Alasdair Dewar, the Director of Product Development there, pointed out another model range the size works well with. He said;

The new 10 inch Adventure Figure is a fantastic addition to the range. Made even better by the use of 3D scan data. The likeness is absolutely fantastic and along with the scaled fabric clothing kids and collectors alike will enjoy this bigger sized figure to play without display … and … it’s by sheer chance perfectly in scale with our 2006 12 inch Doctor Who range.”

The figure will be available on Amazon, Forbidden Planet and The Who Shop later and is due out in August.
